Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a profiled strip (profiled strip) with drainage elements for guiding and controlled drainage of water present on the outside of the profiled strip or on the lock part of the profiled strip.
Background
Publication EP 1 280 675 B1, DE 20 2008 009 712 U1 and DE 20 2008 006986u1 describe profiled strips in the form of a cowl profile element (cowl profile element) having an attachment portion for attaching to a windshield and a catch portion for snappingly receiving a rib of a cowl booster cover (cowl plenum cover).
Such profiled strips are attached to the lower edge of the windshield and then installed into the vehicle body. This presents a risk, for example, that water (e.g. rain water) flowing out of the a-pillar may flow out from the lower end of the a-pillar along the outside of the front wall profile element. In this case, the water will drip from the contour in an uncontrolled manner towards the nacelle. Water may also enter the latch portion and may also drip from the latch portion into the engine compartment in an uncontrolled manner. In either case, the electronics and sensors located in the engine compartment are at risk of shorting.
Publication EP 3 256 339 B1 provides holes in the attachment portion of the cowl profile for draining water that enters between the window pane and the profiled strip. However, this does not prevent uncontrolled dripping of water from outside the profile.
The known profiled strip does not cause water present in the outer side or the locking portion of the profiled strip to drip in a controlled manner.
The technical problem is to provide a solution for the controlled guiding and draining of water from the locked portion or outside of a profiled strip.
This technical problem is solved by a profiled strip comprising drainage elements.
Disclosure of Invention
It is therefore an object of the present invention to guide and/or drain water present in the catch portion and the outside of the profiled strip.
This is achieved by a profiled strip for connecting a windshield of a motor vehicle to a cowl cover, the profiled strip comprising an attachment portion connectable to the windshield, the attachment portion having an attachment side facing the windshield and an underside facing away from the windshield, and the profiled strip further comprising a catch portion having a catch recess for snappingly receiving a rib of the cowl cover and having an outer side facing away from the catch recess, the catch recess being bounded by an inner leg adjacent to the attachment portion, an outer leg opposite to the inner leg and a bottom portion connecting the two legs, the profiled strip having a drainage element arranged on the catch portion in a section along a longitudinal extent of the profiled strip.
In this regard, the longitudinal extent of the measured section parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip may be smaller than the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip.
In an embodiment, the drainage element is configured as an additional component arranged in the segment area at least on a part of the outside of the catch portion.
In another embodiment, the additional component is configured to enclose at least a portion of the latch portion when viewed in cross-section. Alternatively, it may also extend over at least a part of the underside of the attachment portion when viewed in cross-section.
In a further embodiment, the additional component has a substantially uniform cross-sectional profile along its longitudinal extent, which longitudinal extent is measured parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip.
In another embodiment, the additional component may also have a variable cross-sectional profile along its longitudinal extent, which longitudinal extent is measured parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip.
In a further embodiment, the additional component may be formed at least in part from a foam material that is preferably waterproof or watertight.
In another embodiment, the additional part at least partly covers an opening provided in the bottom part and/or the outer leg of the profiled strip. In this regard, optionally, a sealing element may be provided to act between the additional component and at least a portion of the edge that circumscribes the opening.
In a further embodiment, the additional part is arranged on the profiled strip at the end face of the locking portion and may at least partly cover the locking groove, when seen in cross section.
In the latter two embodiments, the additional component optionally has a discharge opening fluidly connected to the catch recess.
In a further embodiment of the profiled strip according to the invention, the drainage element is configured as a drain opening provided in the bottom part and/or in a segment area in the outer leg.
In another embodiment, at least a portion of the edge that circumscribes the drain opening has a drip edge (drop edge) that protrudes outwardly relative to the catch recess.
In a further embodiment, the drainage element is configured as a material thickening which is provided in a segment region outside the catch portion on the bottom portion and/or the outer leg and protrudes outwards with respect to the catch recess, or as a recess provided on the bottom portion and/or the outer leg and contracts inwards with respect to the catch recess.

Legs having outer legs opposite the inner legs and forming part of the boundary of the catch recess; the outer leg is further away from the connecting portion between the inner leg and the outer leg than the inner leg is at the bottom portion of the attachment portion
The drainage element according to the invention may be attached as an additional component to the outside of the profiled strip or may be an integral part of the profiled strip and may, for example, be formed by a partial opening in the catch portion or a partial contour outside the catch portion. The drainage element is arranged on the catch portion in a section along the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip, which section preferably has a smaller longitudinal extent than the profiled strip and is measured parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip. This allows water to drain in a controlled manner at a desired location along the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip. Although the term "segment" is used hereinafter only in the singular, it is possible that a segment or segments may be provided on the same profiled strip.
An inventive profiled strip for connecting a windshield and a cowl cover of a motor vehicle comprises, in a known manner, an attachment portion and a latch portion. The windscreen may be connected to the attachment portion of the profiled strip on its attachment side by fastening means such as double-sided adhesive tape. Other types of fastening are also possible.
The locking portion comprises a locking groove extending in the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip. The locking groove is used for receiving the locking rib of the front wall pressurizing cover. The catch groove is limited by the inner leg towards the fastening portion. The outer leg is opposite the inner leg. Located between the two legs is a bottom portion which interconnects the two legs and forms a catch recess with them. In the case of a V-shaped catch recess, the bottom portion constitutes the region where the inner leg and the outer leg meet. A latch element for latching engagement preferably with the rib of the front booster cover may be provided in the latch recess. Alternatively or additionally, the snap-lock connection of the ribs may also be achieved by one or more undercuts (undercut) on one or both legs.
The attachment portion and the locking portion of the profiled strip are preferably integrally connected as one piece. The profiled strip is preferably made of a plastic material and may preferably be manufactured in an extrusion process. Furthermore, the profiled strip may comprise a reinforcement, preferably made of metal or alloy.
The profiled strip according to the invention further comprises a drainage element which is provided on the catch portion in a section of the profiled strip and which may be in the form of a contour, in particular a partial contour, in an outer region of the catch portion, in the form of a drain opening provided in the bottom portion and/or the outer leg, or in the form of an additional component provided on the catch portion.
The longitudinal extent of the segments measured parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip is preferably smaller than the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip. The longitudinal extent of the segments is preferably 10%, 5%, 3%, 2% and particularly preferably 1% of the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip.
In an embodiment, the drainage element is an additional part which is provided at least on a part of the outside of the catch portion of the profiled strip in the region of the section of the profiled strip and is preferably friction-and/or interlocking-connected to the profiled strip. It is also conceivable to attach by adhesive or material-to-material bonding. This allows the profiled strip and the drainage element to be easily manufactured separately in a way that can be optimized independently of each other. The additional component is manufactured separately from the profiled strip. After its manufacture, the additional component is mounted on the profiled strip, for example by means of a clamping connection.
The material of the additional part is preferably composed of plastic and may be the same as the material of the profiled strip. However, the plastic may also be different from it, and may be, for example, harder or softer (higher or lower shore hardness) than the plastic of the profiled strip or a portion thereof.
The additional member surrounds at least a portion of the outside of the latch portion when viewed in cross section. Alternatively, the additional component may additionally extend over at least a portion of the underside of the attachment portion when viewed in cross-section. This makes it possible to improve the attachment of the additional component to the profiled strip compared to covering only the lateral extent of the locking portion.
For example, such additional components in the form of clips may have a substantially uniform cross-sectional profile along their longitudinal extent. Thus, the diameter or material thickness of the additional component is substantially uniform along the longitudinal extent. The longitudinal extent of the additional component refers to its dimension in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip. This allows the additional component to be manufactured in a simple manner, for example by extrusion and subsequent cutting into segments of a desired length.
Alternatively, the additional component may have a variable cross-sectional profile along its longitudinal extent. In this case, such additional components have different material thicknesses along their longitudinal extent. This makes it possible to force the separation of water droplets in selected areas of the additional component by configuring the profile such that, for example, a drip edge or drip point is formed.
Furthermore, the additional component may be partly or entirely made of a foam material, preferably waterproof or watertight. In this case, the attachment to the outside of the profiled strip may also be achieved by material-to-material bonding. In this regard, the foam material surrounds at least a portion of the outside of the latch portion. In addition, the foam material may also extend along a portion of or the entire underside of the attachment portion.
The additional part may be arranged in the region of the partial opening of the outer leg and/or the bottom part and may enclose at least a part of the outer side of the catch part when seen in cross-section, so as to at least partially, preferably substantially, cover the opening. In this regard, a sealing element may be provided to act between the additional component and at least a portion of the edge that circumscribes the opening. The openings may be formed by punching, drilling, milling, cutting, etc. This allows the water present in the catch recess to drain in a controlled manner.
Alternatively, the additional member may be provided at the end face of the latch portion; i.e. in the region of the ends of the profiled strip that delimit the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip. Similarly, two such additional parts may also be provided at both end faces of the latch portion. Here, the additional part may be slid onto the end from the outside, for example. The additional part is dimensioned such that it at least partially, preferably completely, covers the catch recess when seen in cross section.
In both embodiments described above, a discharge port may optionally be provided, illustratively in the form of a spout or nozzle, and fluidly connected to the catch recess.
The profiled strip according to the invention may also comprise more than one of the above-mentioned additional parts. Furthermore, it is also possible to provide a plurality of additional parts of different embodiments on the profiled strip according to the invention. For example, one or two additional components provided at one or both end faces of the latch portion may be combined with one or more additional components along the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip. In general, the use of one additional component does not preclude the use of another additional component; rather, this is at the discretion of the person skilled in the art.
The drainage element may also be an integral part of the profiled strip. This eliminates the need for additional elements that would otherwise be separately manufactured and attached to the profiled strip.
Thus, in a further embodiment of the invention, the drainage element is configured as a drain opening, which is provided in the region of the segment of the catch part and in which region the catch recess is locally opened. The drain opening may be formed in the outer leg and/or the bottom portion. The drain opening may be formed by punching, drilling, milling, cutting, etc. The drain opening can be used both for draining water from the catch recess in a controlled manner and for dripping water flowing along the outside of the profiled strip in a controlled manner.
In another embodiment, at least a portion of the edge bounding the drain opening has a drip edge protruding outwardly relative to the catch recess. The drain port and protruding drip edge may be formed together in a combined stamping and crimping process. Preferably, such drip edge is provided in two boundary areas of the drain opening, which are opposite to each other in the longitudinal direction of the profiled strip.
In a further embodiment of the profiled strip according to the invention, the drainage element is a partial recess or partial material thickening in the material, which is provided in the region of the segment of the profiled strip on the outside of the catch portion. For example, a material thickening may be provided on the bottom part and/or the outer leg of the catch part, which material thickening is oriented outwards with respect to the catch recess. Alternatively, recesses that retract inwardly relative to the catch grooves may be provided on the bottom portion and/or outer legs of the catch portion. In this regard, the contour edge of the material thickening or recess results in water dripping from the outside of the contour in a controlled manner.
The recess in the material or material thickening may preferably be located at the lowest point of the profiled strip in the mounted state, when seen in cross section. The installation state refers to attaching the profile strip to a windshield installed in a vehicle. In this installed state, the profiled strip is inclined at an angle. The profile of the profiled strip shown on the left in fig. 1 is then rotated 30 ° clockwise. The lowest point of the contour is then located in the region of the outer leg and/or in the region of the bottom part and/or in the transition region between the outer leg and the bottom part, when viewed in cross section.
All the above-described embodiments of the drainage element, whether in the form of an additional component or in the form of recesses and/or material thickenings and/or drains, can be combined with each other in a given profiled strip. Thus, in this case, a given profiled strip features a plurality of segments, each segment having a longitudinal extent that is less than the longitudinal extent of the profiled strip.
The inventive profiled strip comprising a drainage element serves for guiding and/or draining water present on or in the profiled strip. Such water may, for example, be present on the outside of the profiled strip or in the profiled strip.
A method for guiding and/or draining water present on or in a profiled strip comprises at least the following steps:
a) A profiled strip according to the invention is provided,
b) The attachment portion of the profiled strip is connected to a windshield.
If an additional component is used as a drainage element, method step a) may comprise the steps of: the method comprises the steps of providing a profiled strip, providing a drainage element in the form of an add-on part, and arranging the drainage element in at least a part of the outer side of the segments of the profiled strip and the locking portions of the profiled strip.
Furthermore, the method according to the invention may comprise the steps of:
c) A windshield having a profiled strip is mounted into the vehicle body,
d) A cowl cover is connected to the profiled strip.
Several non-limiting exemplary embodiments are shown in the drawings and described below.
